ReplyDeleteHrm curious on the HSPU practice. Should I be practicing against a wall or practicing being able to do a hspu w/o a wall?
ReplyDeleteHey Guys I'm Back to training for the strong man comp with Rob O. in August, won't post but keep in touch.
ReplyDeleteJust a word to let all the athlete that went to regional and some I had the honor to train with while I was down there : I definitely agree with Brett in yesterday .com video, its getting really exiting to got to train with such strong beings! Great inspiration, open minded athletes.

Coach,
ReplyDeleteGreat programming, seeing some great results. Quick question, I compete in Firefigher Combat Challenge Competition about once a month and I was wondering if I should do my skill work and sport specific metcon in addition to the training here or replace some of the metcon work on here with a sport specific metcon? Thanks

Part 1
ReplyDeleteRuns felt good
HSPU - 91 Reps
Did 10 unbroken reps on the minute through minute 7. Then fell apart and did all 2's and 3's. My goal was to complete 10x10 in 10mins. Next time?
Part 2 later
2011 Part 1 Runs done.
ReplyDeleteNeed to make up the HSPU practice tonight.
(Difficult to find a place both to run and do HSPU's in Manhattan without making too much of a scene.)
Ten WOD's this week. I think if I make it through Sunday, I'm pretty much on my way.
2011:
ReplyDeletePart 1:
Didn't have time to take 4 min rest b/t sets so I ran on treadmill at a 5:45 mile pace for a minute and walked for a minute x 8
10 minute rest
Part 2:
A: 205x6, 225x6, 245x6, 265x4, 275x3, 275x1 Tempo killed grip on these.
B: 165x3 all sets
C: No GHD so I locked heels under a bench and did negatives. 12 reps x 5
Coach,
Due to time constraints I usually can't separate my workouts by 4 hours, or for more than about ten minutes for that matter. I have been doing them back to back and just wanted to make sure that this is the best method. Any advice you can give me would be appreciated.
Runs felt good. Rest time was perfect. did HSPU's on the min.
ReplyDelete5,5,5,4,4,3,4,3,3,2.

C. 3 sets of 15. Saving the hamstrings for soccer match tomorrow. not sure how to do it with bands. If anyone has video could you link to it?
Did Saturday's triple for 2010 prep
ReplyDeletePart 1
Barbell Complex, 5 sets; rest 3 min
Power Clean x 1
Squat Clean x 2
Split Jerk x 3
Front Squat x 4
155-175-185-190-195
I figured my upper limit would be around 185-190ish, so I'm pretty happy with that. The cleans weren't too bad but by the time the jerks came around it was gut check time. Split jerks were a little wobbly, but I got em. One second rest or so between split jerks at heavier weights to reset feet.
------------
30 min rest

Part 2.
For time:
1k row @ 90%
20 Muscle ups
1k row @ 90%

ReplyDelete2011: Part 2
A SGDL: 80/90/95/100/100/105kg (231#) - Brought straps today. The last time we did this with 4s essentric movement about killed me.
B HHPS: 60/65/70/76/80/82.5kg (181#) - Back was burning but they felt easy today!
C: GH Raises: 5 rounds - 60 second rest, had to get back to work.
Part 1: Later if I have time...

ReplyDeleteRuns felt good averaged about 260m per minute. Didn't rest the full 4 minutes due to time constraints just walked back to start and went again, was about 3 minutes instead of 4.
ReplyDeleteHSPU practice did about 25 which is good for me. Gillian you are seriously a beast I love it. Realized I need to go faster and that makes it easier instead of such a slow eccentric.
Part 2 after work...
Roch thanks for your concern. Porter is recovering well he is a tough little man!!

ReplyDeletepart 1 - switched the run for swim due to a need to improve my swimming. Swam about 1km total.
ReplyDelete750m breast stroke- 17:50
have to make up the HSPU tommorow.

b. low back was tired took it easy-
115,125,135,130,135
c.12,12,12,8,10
Agree with PTS time to start using the straps. I haven`t used them in about 5 years.
Lisa.....
ReplyDeleteYou are SO right that you need to go faster. That was the best piece of HSPU advice Brett gave me. Try not to "look for the bottom", just drop (and I use this term loosely:o) and then push out of the hole. I went from struggling to get 2 or 3 to getting 7 in a row just by working on this.
Oh and nice to see you posting again :o)
finally at the gym 2day...
ReplyDeleteA- SGDL @6011- 225x6/ 275x4 x3/ 275x6/ 300x4
B- HHPS- 135x3 x5sets
C- harop curls- x15 x4 sets
D- HBBS- 275x5 x10sets, 60sec bw sets
E1- strict covp pu- 21/ 17/ 16, 60sec
E2- barbell pullovers- 135x5 x3sets, 60sec
E3- ghdsu- 25lbx10 x3sets, 60sec
F- tabata behind head clapping pushups- 80 (10 all sets)
grip was by far the limiting factor on SGDL... it's getting better, but still a long way 2 go... perhaps straps if this comes up again...
mayb the run later 2night... time for meetings...

B. 65, 65, 70, 75, 75
C. 12 reps with red band x5 (1/2 inch) - and I didn't strangle myself! :)
the DL with 4 reps were due to bad tempo. the gym was 29 degrees (no AC) and my legs were so sweaty it kept slipping down and screwing me up.. solved that by chalking my legs!
took the weekend off and rested and iced my rib/chest issue, and it seems to have resolved.. really happy. felt fast and strong today.

I need to be more consistant about posting, I don't miss the WODs but I don't take the time to post. I know Molloy I will work on it.

So yeah....I obviously misunderstoo the "wave load" which was kind of sucky. I was actually glad when I found out I did it wrong because I almost passed out and thought I should reconsider what I'm doing. I get it right next time...on the bright side I got in a helluva lot of front squats.

Hope to see you in CT for the strongman, if not then see you in Burlington sometime in September. I will come and train forsure :) LuLu

B: 75# (3x5)
C: 6 reps(thin rubber band)/13(thin latex band)/14/9/12

2011
ReplyDeletePart 1
Runs between 300-320m. Easy except the last two where I probably exceeded 85%.
One more day of rest from pushing so no HSPU, thus no 10 min rest.
